Róbert Kovács,Zsolt Csenki,Katalin Bakos,Béla Urbányi,Ákos Horváth,Vera Garaj-Vrhovac,Goran Gajski,Marko Gerić,Noelia Negreira,Miren López de Alda,Damià Barceló,Ester Heath,Tina Kosjek,Bojana Žegura,Matjaž Novak,Irena Zajc,Špela Baebler,Ana Rotter,Živa Ramšak,Metka Filipič +19 more
TL;DR: The results of the first investigation using a two- generation toxicity study design with zebrafish demonstrate that further studies into multi-generation toxicity are needed, and contribute to a better understanding of the potential consequences of chronic exposure of fish to low concentrations of anti-neoplastic drugs.

Adrienn Balázs,Csilla Krifaton,Ivett Orosz,Sándor Szoboszlay,Róbert Kovács,Zsolt Csenki,Béla Urbányi,Balázs Kriszt +7 more
TL;DR: Investigations regarding its cytotoxic and teratogenic effects on bacteria and zebrafish embryos, respectively revealed the cytotoxicity of benzophenone-3 not only to yeasts but to bacteria, as well as its ability to influence zebra fish embryo hatching and development.

Developmental toxicity and estrogenic potency of zearalenone in zebrafish (Danio rerio).
Katalin Bakos,Róbert Kovács,Ádám Staszny,Dóra Kánainé Sipos,Béla Urbányi,Ferenc Müller,Zsolt Csenki,Balázs Kovács +7 more
TL;DR: Developmental defects reveal that besides direct estrogenic effects, zearalenone might interact with other ontogenic pathways, that is close to levels observed in wastewaters.

Acute and sub-chronic toxicity of four cytostatic drugs in zebrafish.
Róbert Kovács,Katalin Bakos,Béla Urbányi,Judit Kövesi,Gyöngyi Gazsi,Andrea Csepeli,Ádám János Appl,Dóra Bencsik,Zsolt Csenki,Ákos Horváth +9 more
TL;DR: All four cytostatic drugs were characterized by low toxicity in zebrafish in acute and sub-chronic tests and can be considered LOEC for mortalities, as statistically significant difference in mortalities was detected in this group alone.

Estrogen sensitive liver transgenic zebrafish (Danio rerio) line (Tg(vtg1:mCherry)) suitable for the direct detection of estrogenicity in environmental samples.
Katalin Bakos,Róbert Kovács,Erna Balogh,Dóra Kánainé Sipos,Marta Reining,Orsolya Gyomorei-Neuberger,Adrienn Balázs,Balázs Kriszt,Dóra Bencsik,Andrea Csepeli,Gyöngyi Gazsi,Yavor Hadzhiev,Béla Urbányi,Ferenc Mueller,Balázs Kovács,Zsolt Csenki +15 more
TL;DR: A vitellogenin reporter transgenic zebrafish line (Tg(vtg1:mCherry)) that enables the detection of estrogenicity in the environmentally relevant, low concentration ranges in embryonic tests that are in accordance with 3Rs and relevant animal welfare regulations is described.
